About this deal

Other women begin appearing in the same ad, a different one every day, and Zoe realizes they've become the victims of increasingly violent crimes—including rape and murder. With the help of a determined cop, she uncovers the ad's twisted purpose...a discovery that turns her paranoia into full-blown panic. For now Zoe is sure that someone close to her has set her up as the next target. Zoe Walker has a very routine life that involves using the same route to the train station twice a day.

I write nerve-shredding thrillers about ordinary situations gone wrong -- the kind of thing that could happen to any of us! I wanted reassurance. I wanted to be told I was overreacting; paranoid; delusional. I wanted false promises and glasses-half-full. A few days ago I worried the police weren’t taking me seriously; now I’m worried because they are. While heading home one evening, Zoe is puzzled when she sees a blurry picture of herself, and her phone number, on the classifieds section of a local newspaper. This thriller has been described as ‘un-putdownable’. Can you define what makes a book impossible to put down?

Determined to run away from her past, she leaves everything behind and relocates to an isolated cottage on the coast of Wales, in an effort to forget about the terrible events of that tragic night in November. stars. That final ending really took me by surprise! By far, it was the best part of the story and made me add another half star to my rating. In my opinion, this novel was not as good as the author's debut, 'I Let You Go'. When Zoe first realized she was being followed, did you think she was being stalked by someone she knew or someone she didn't know? However, right before the start of the journey, Mina receives an eerie message from an anonymous passenger. Who's the bad guy? That's the question on everyone's mind when flipping through thrillers. Sometimes, the answer is so painfully obvious it's embarrassing, and other times you're guessing until the final word. Thankfully, I See You fell into the latter. I was 100% convinced it was Person X and I don't think I've ever been happier to have been wrong.

The ending felt clumsy. All of a sudden, the criminal makes a silly mistake and can’t seem to fix it, despite all their previous cleverness. A police officer sends a totally unbelievable communication to a victim. Then the criminal seems to become a completely different person. Then, as the cold light of doubt has been ushered in by this personality swap, and the other unlikely events, the reader might start considering whether the entire concept really works…Kelly badly wants to redeem herself, and - and when one of the 'photo women' is murdered - manages to get herself seconded to the Murder Investigation Team (MIT). With Kelly's help the MIT discovers that one of the FINDTHEONE' women was raped, and others were crime victims as well. I really enjoyed reading the story and finding out how the crimes were happening, but the ending is fundamentally unconvincing. Yes, it’s important to suspend disbelief when reading psychological thrillers, and yes, I did really enjoy reading this, especially the epilogue, BUT if you start thinking about any of the infrastructure of the plot, it doesn’t just creak, it collapses. Final thoughts
